Our Operations Learning and Development (L&D) team comprises six dedicated trainers who specialise in providing operational training for internal staff, primarily focusing on customer support. In addition to training our internal team, we play a crucial role in supporting and monitoring outsourced Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) trainers to ensure the quality of customer support provided by outsourced partners meets our standards.

By effectively supporting and monitoring these external trainers, we contribute to maintaining a consistent level of excellence in customer support across all channels. Our ultimate goal remains to bridge knowledge gaps, ensure effective communication of operational changes, and cultivate a skilled workforce capable of delivering exceptional customer support, both internally and through outsourced channels.
